My interest t for this years I-search paper is to volunteer with helping children and babies. So far I have helped at the elementary school by packing up for the new move. Pretty soon I am going to volunteer to help out at the hospital. My argument for this paper is how neonatal nurses don't just watch over children after their born. I will argue that they save the lives of many babies and kids that get sick right after birth. I'm super excited for this paper and I cant wait to help volunteer for it.

My interest in my i-search paper, i plan on volunteering at the library. I have never volunteered at the library before so this will be interesting. My argument over this is why we should read books.Why would it be good reading books. Why do we need a library in our school.

I'm very interested in books and love to read. That is why I think volunteering at the library will be my best choice for my research. I am passionate about banned books and how that is wrong. My paper on why books should not be banned wouldn't help just the community but the world of literature.

I'm interested in helping the environment. I often notice that we take advantage of our planet and litter it. I plan on getting my volunteer hours by cleaning the McCoy Creek trail and other areas around town. And I think that by doing this, it will be a small step towards something bigger.

My I-Search paper is going to be focused on volunteering at the Haunted House. My argument for it is should people pay money to be scared by others. To begin, I will seek information from their office to find where assistance is needed. The Haunted House is something I've been interested in for quite a while but volunteering there has never crossed my mind. I'm excited to be involved with a project that helps the community and I'm looking forward to completing my six hours.

They have workshops during the weekends where the parents come together and have a therapeutic session, this is when they also bring the little ones, the ones i will be watching for a few hours at a time.

I have always been a big supporter of our military and how involved the U.S is with the rest of the world. A way for me to give back and repay my gratitude is to volunteer at our local legion and help with whatever is needed. While volunteering I hope that I will be able to interview some of the Veterans I come across and directly get their point of view on our military involvement in the world. I hope by doing this, that I will be able to increase the support and give our Veterans the respect they deserve.

My grandpa is one of the most important people in my life. A few years ago, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer. At first, he was going strong and still finding joy in the days. However, as time went on, he started getting sicker and his attempts at staying positive weren't as successful. All I want to do is take care of my grandpa, but since he lives hours away from me, I can't care for him just yet. I want to use the passion I have for caring for my grandpa to care for others. So for my I-Search paper, I will volunteer at a nursing home and write about how nurses can make huge impacts on others by helping them not only physically but emotionally.

Old people have also lived a lot so they'll have cool stories about the war and stuff.
